[Wien] WIEN2k Version 19.1

[Peter Blaha]

I'm aware of the basic problem.

The point is:

Ubuntu (any other Linux system ??) does not set this link making csh and 
tcsh the same.

Should we therefore change all scripts to /bin/tcsh   ???

Would there be some Linux systems where this would introduce problems 
(with their default installations), for instance because a tcsh is NOT 
installed by default (while a csh is) ?

If all Linux (Mac !!! ???) systems understand /bin/tcsh, this change 
would be fine with me.

Any response from "Linux gurus" with experience with different Linux 
versions (I only have Suse and Redhat) would be appreciated.
